      mm,thp,rmap: subpages_mapcount COMPOUND_MAPPED if PMD-mapped · 4b51634c
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      Can the lock_compound_mapcount() bit_spin_lock apparatus be removed now? 
Yes.  Not by atomic64_t or cmpxchg games, those get difficult on 32-bit;
but if we slightly abuse subpages_mapcount by additionally demanding that
one bit be set there when the compound page is PMD-mapped, then a cascade
of two atomic ops is able to maintain the stats without bit_spin_lock.

This is harder to reason about than when bit_spin_locked, but I believe
safe; and no drift in stats detected when testing.  When there are racing
removes and adds, of course the sequence of operations is less well-
defined; but each operation on subpages_mapcount is atomically good.  What
might be disastrous, is if subpages_mapcount could ever fleetingly appear
negative: but the pte lock (or pmd lock) these rmap functions are called
under, ensures that a last remove cannot race ahead of a first add.

Continue to make an exception for hugetlb (PageHuge) pages, though that
exception can be easily removed by a further commit if necessary: leave
subpages_mapcount 0, don't bother with COMPOUND_MAPPED in its case, just
carry on checking compound_mapcount too in folio_mapped(), page_mapped().

Evidence is that this way goes slightly faster than the previous
implementation in all cases (pmds after ptes now taking around 103ms); and
relieves us of worrying about contention on the bit_spin_lock.

      mm,thp,rmap: subpages_mapcount of PTE-mapped subpages · be5ef2d9
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      Patch series "mm,thp,rmap: rework the use of subpages_mapcount", v2.


This patch (of 3):

Following suggestion from Linus, instead of counting every PTE map of a
compound page in subpages_mapcount, just count how many of its subpages
are PTE-mapped: this yields the exact number needed for NR_ANON_MAPPED and
NR_FILE_MAPPED stats, without any need for a locked scan of subpages; and
requires updating the count less often.

This does then revert total_mapcount() and folio_mapcount() to needing a
scan of subpages; but they are inherently racy, and need no locking, so
Linus is right that the scans are much better done there.  Plus (unlike in
6.1 and previous) subpages_mapcount lets us avoid the scan in the common
case of no PTE maps.  And page_mapped() and folio_mapped() remain scanless
and just as efficient with the new meaning of subpages_mapcount: those are
the functions which I most wanted to remove the scan from.

The updated page_dup_compound_rmap() is no longer suitable for use by anon
THP's __split_huge_pmd_locked(); but page_add_anon_rmap() can be used for
that, so long as its VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageLocked) is deleted.

Evidence is that this way goes slightly faster than the previous
implementation for most cases; but significantly faster in the (now
scanless) pmds after ptes case, which started out at 870ms and was brought
down to 495ms by the previous series, now takes around 105ms.

      mm,thp,rmap: simplify compound page mapcount handling · cb67f428
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      Compound page (folio) mapcount calculations have been different for anon
and file (or shmem) THPs, and involved the obscure PageDoubleMap flag. 
And each huge mapping and unmapping of a file (or shmem) THP involved
atomically incrementing and decrementing the mapcount of every subpage of
that huge page, dirtying many struct page cachelines.

Add subpages_mapcount field to the struct folio and first tail page, so
that the total of subpage mapcounts is available in one place near the
head: then page_mapcount() and total_mapcount() and page_mapped(), and
their folio equivalents, are so quick that anon and file and hugetlb don't
need to be optimized differently.  Delete the unloved PageDoubleMap.

page_add and page_remove rmap functions must now maintain the
subpages_mapcount as well as the subpage _mapcount, when dealing with pte
mappings of huge pages; and correct maintenance of NR_ANON_MAPPED and
NR_FILE_MAPPED statistics still needs reading through the subpages, using
nr_subpages_unmapped() - but only when first or last pmd mapping finds
subpages_mapcount raised (double-map case, not the common case).

But are those counts (used to decide when to split an anon THP, and in
vmscan's pagecache_reclaimable heuristic) correctly maintained?  Not
quite: since page_remove_rmap() (and also split_huge_pmd()) is often
called without page lock, there can be races when a subpage pte mapcount
0<->1 while compound pmd mapcount 0<->1 is scanning - races which the
previous implementation had prevented.  The statistics might become
inaccurate, and even drift down until they underflow through 0.  That is
not good enough, but is better dealt with in a followup patch.

Update a few comments on first and second tail page overlaid fields. 
hugepage_add_new_anon_rmap() has to "increment" compound_mapcount, but
subpages_mapcount and compound_pincount are already correctly at 0, so
delete its reinitialization of compound_pincount.

A simple 100 X munmap(mmap(2GB, MAP_SHARED|MAP_POPULATE, tmpfs), 2GB) took
18 seconds on small pages, and used to take 1 second on huge pages, but
now takes 119 milliseconds on huge pages.  Mapping by pmds a second time
used to take 860ms and now takes 92ms; mapping by pmds after mapping by
ptes (when the scan is needed) used to take 870ms and now takes 495ms. 
But there might be some benchmarks which would show a slowdown, because
tail struct pages now fall out of cache until final freeing checks them.

      mm: convert mm's rss stats into percpu_counter · f1a79412
      由 Shakeel Butt 提交于 
      Currently mm_struct maintains rss_stats which are updated on page fault
and the unmapping codepaths.  For page fault codepath the updates are
cached per thread with the batch of TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH which is 64. 
The reason for caching is performance for multithreaded applications
otherwise the rss_stats updates may become hotspot for such applications.

However this optimization comes with the cost of error margin in the rss
stats.  The rss_stats for applications with large number of threads can be
very skewed.  At worst the error margin is (nr_threads * 64) and we have a
lot of applications with 100s of threads, so the error margin can be very
high.  Internally we had to reduce TASK_RSS_EVENTS_THRESH to 32.

Recently we started seeing the unbounded errors for rss_stats for specific
applications which use TCP rx0cp.  It seems like vm_insert_pages()
codepath does not sync rss_stats at all.

This patch converts the rss_stats into percpu_counter to convert the error
margin from (nr_threads * 64) to approximately (nr_cpus ^ 2).  However
this conversion enable us to get the accurate stats for situations where
accuracy is more important than the cpu cost.

This patch does not make such tradeoffs - we can just use
percpu_counter_add_local() for the updates and percpu_counter_sum() (or
percpu_counter_sync() + percpu_counter_read) for the readers.  At the
moment the readers are either procfs interface, oom_killer and memory
reclaim which I think are not performance critical and should be ok with
slow read.  However I think we can make that change in a separate patch.

      hugetlb: don't delete vma_lock in hugetlb MADV_DONTNEED processing · 04ada095
      由 Mike Kravetz 提交于 
      madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) ends up calling zap_page_range() to clear page
tables associated with the address range.  For hugetlb vmas,
zap_page_range will call __unmap_hugepage_range_final.  However,
__unmap_hugepage_range_final assumes the passed vma is about to be removed
and deletes the vma_lock to prevent pmd sharing as the vma is on the way
out.  In the case of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) the vma remains, but the
missing vma_lock prevents pmd sharing and could potentially lead to issues
with truncation/fault races.

This issue was originally reported here [1] as a BUG triggered in
page_try_dup_anon_rmap.  Prior to the introduction of the hugetlb
vma_lock, __unmap_hugepage_range_final cleared the VM_MAYSHARE flag to
prevent pmd sharing.  Subsequent faults on this vma were confused as
VM_MAYSHARE indicates a sharable vma, but was not set so page_mapping was
not set in new pages added to the page table.  This resulted in pages that
appeared anonymous in a VM_SHARED vma and triggered the BUG.

Address issue by adding a new zap flag ZAP_FLAG_UNMAP to indicate an unmap
call from unmap_vmas().  This is used to indicate the 'final' unmapping of
a hugetlb vma.  When called via MADV_DONTNEED, this flag is not set and
the vm_lock is not deleted.

      madvise: use zap_page_range_single for madvise dontneed · 21b85b09
      由 Mike Kravetz 提交于 
      This series addresses the issue first reported in [1], and fully described
in patch 2.  Patches 1 and 2 address the user visible issue and are tagged
for stable backports.

While exploring solutions to this issue, related problems with mmu
notification calls were discovered.  This is addressed in the patch
"hugetlb: remove duplicate mmu notifications:".  Since there are no user
visible effects, this third is not tagged for stable backports.

Previous discussions suggested further cleanup by removing the
routine zap_page_range.  This is possible because zap_page_range_single
is now exported, and all callers of zap_page_range pass ranges entirely
within a single vma.  This work will be done in a later patch so as not
to distract from this bug fix.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAO4mrfdLMXsao9RF4fUE8-Wfde8xmjsKrTNMNC9wjUb6JudD0g@mail.gmail.com/


This patch (of 2):

Expose the routine zap_page_range_single to zap a range within a single
vma.  The madvise routine madvise_dontneed_single_vma can use this routine
as it explicitly operates on a single vma.  Also, update the mmu
notification range in zap_page_range_single to take hugetlb pmd sharing
into account.  This is required as MADV_DONTNEED supports hugetlb vmas.

      mm: fix PageAnonExclusive clearing racing with concurrent RCU GUP-fast · 088b8aa5
      由 David Hildenbrand 提交于 
      commit 6c287605 ("mm: remember exclusively mapped anonymous pages with
PG_anon_exclusive") made sure that when PageAnonExclusive() has to be
cleared during temporary unmapping of a page, that the PTE is
cleared/invalidated and that the TLB is flushed.

What we want to achieve in all cases is that we cannot end up with a pin on
an anonymous page that may be shared, because such pins would be
unreliable and could result in memory corruptions when the mapped page
and the pin go out of sync due to a write fault.

That TLB flush handling was inspired by an outdated comment in
mm/ksm.c:write_protect_page(), which similarly required the TLB flush in
the past to synchronize with GUP-fast. However, ever since general RCU GUP
fast was introduced in commit 2667f50e ("mm: introduce a general RCU
get_user_pages_fast()"), a TLB flush is no longer sufficient to handle
concurrent GUP-fast in all cases -- it only handles traditional IPI-based
GUP-fast correctly.

Peter Xu (thankfully) questioned whether that TLB flush is really
required. On architectures that send an IPI broadcast on TLB flush,
it works as expected. To synchronize with RCU GUP-fast properly, we're
conceptually fine, however, we have to enforce a certain memory order and
are missing memory barriers.

Let's document that, avoid the TLB flush where possible and use proper
explicit memory barriers where required. We shouldn't really care about the
additional memory barriers here, as we're not on extremely hot paths --
and we're getting rid of some TLB flushes.

We use a smp_mb() pair for handling concurrent pinning and a
smp_rmb()/smp_wmb() pair for handling the corner case of only temporary
PTE changes but permanent PageAnonExclusive changes.

One extreme example, whereby GUP-fast takes a R/O pin and KSM wants to
convert an exclusive anonymous page to a KSM page, and that page is already
mapped write-protected (-> no PTE change) would be:

	Thread 0 (KSM)			Thread 1 (GUP-fast)

					(B1) Read the PTE
					# (B2) skipped without FOLL_WRITE
	(A1) Clear PTE
	smp_mb()
	(A2) Check pinned
					(B3) Pin the mapped page
					smp_mb()
	(A3) Clear PageAnonExclusive
	smp_wmb()
	(A4) Restore PTE
					(B4) Check if the PTE changed
					smp_rmb()
					(B5) Check PageAnonExclusive

Thread 1 will properly detect that PageAnonExclusive was cleared and
back off.

Note that we don't need a memory barrier between checking if the page is
pinned and clearing PageAnonExclusive, because stores are not
speculated.

The possible issues due to reordering are of theoretical nature so far
and attempts to reproduce the race failed.

Especially the "no PTE change" case isn't the common case, because we'd
need an exclusive anonymous page that's mapped R/O and the PTE is clean
in KSM code -- and using KSM with page pinning isn't extremely common.
Further, the clear+TLB flush we used for now implies a memory barrier.
So the problematic missing part should be the missing memory barrier
after pinning but before checking if the PTE changed.

      memory tiering: hot page selection with hint page fault latency · 33024536
      由 Huang Ying 提交于 
      Patch series "memory tiering: hot page selection", v4.

To optimize page placement in a memory tiering system with NUMA balancing,
the hot pages in the slow memory nodes need to be identified. 
Essentially, the original NUMA balancing implementation selects the mostly
recently accessed (MRU) pages to promote.  But this isn't a perfect
algorithm to identify the hot pages.  Because the pages with quite low
access frequency may be accessed eventually given the NUMA balancing page
table scanning period could be quite long (e.g.  60 seconds).  So in this
patchset, we implement a new hot page identification algorithm based on
the latency between NUMA balancing page table scanning and hint page
fault.  Which is a kind of mostly frequently accessed (MFU) algorithm.

In NUMA balancing memory tiering mode, if there are hot pages in slow
memory node and cold pages in fast memory node, we need to promote/demote
hot/cold pages between the fast and cold memory nodes.

A choice is to promote/demote as fast as possible.  But the CPU cycles and
memory bandwidth consumed by the high promoting/demoting throughput will
hurt the latency of some workload because of accessing inflating and slow
memory bandwidth contention.

A way to resolve this issue is to restrict the max promoting/demoting
throughput.  It will take longer to finish the promoting/demoting.  But
the workload latency will be better.  This is implemented in this patchset
as the page promotion rate limit mechanism.

The promotion hot threshold is workload and system configuration
dependent.  So in this patchset, a method to adjust the hot threshold
automatically is implemented.  The basic idea is to control the number of
the candidate promotion pages to match the promotion rate limit.

We used the pmbench memory accessing benchmark tested the patchset on a
2-socket server system with DRAM and PMEM installed.  The test results are
as follows,

		pmbench score		promote rate
		 (accesses/s)			MB/s
		-------------		------------
base		  146887704.1		       725.6
hot selection     165695601.2		       544.0
rate limit	  162814569.8		       165.2
auto adjustment	  170495294.0                  136.9

From the results above,

With hot page selection patch [1/3], the pmbench score increases about
12.8%, and promote rate (overhead) decreases about 25.0%, compared with
base kernel.

With rate limit patch [2/3], pmbench score decreases about 1.7%, and
promote rate decreases about 69.6%, compared with hot page selection
patch.

With threshold auto adjustment patch [3/3], pmbench score increases about
4.7%, and promote rate decrease about 17.1%, compared with rate limit
patch.

Baolin helped to test the patchset with MySQL on a machine which contains
1 DRAM node (30G) and 1 PMEM node (126G).

This patch (of 3):

To optimize page placement in a memory tiering system with NUMA balancing,
the hot pages in the slow memory node need to be identified.  Essentially,
the original NUMA balancing implementation selects the mostly recently
accessed (MRU) pages to promote.  But this isn't a perfect algorithm to
identify the hot pages.  Because the pages with quite low access frequency
may be accessed eventually given the NUMA balancing page table scanning
period could be quite long (e.g.  60 seconds).  The most frequently
accessed (MFU) algorithm is better.

So, in this patch we implemented a better hot page selection algorithm. 
Which is based on NUMA balancing page table scanning and hint page fault
as follows,

- When the page tables of the processes are scanned to change PTE/PMD
  to be PROT_NONE, the current time is recorded in struct page as scan
  time.

- When the page is accessed, hint page fault will occur.  The scan
  time is gotten from the struct page.  And The hint page fault
  latency is defined as

    hint page fault time - scan time

The shorter the hint page fault latency of a page is, the higher the
probability of their access frequency to be higher.  So the hint page
fault latency is a better estimation of the page hot/cold.

It's hard to find some extra space in struct page to hold the scan time. 
Fortunately, we can reuse some bits used by the original NUMA balancing.

NUMA balancing uses some bits in struct page to store the page accessing
CPU and PID (referring to page_cpupid_xchg_last()).  Which is used by the
multi-stage node selection algorithm to avoid to migrate pages shared
accessed by the NUMA nodes back and forth.  But for pages in the slow
memory node, even if they are shared accessed by multiple NUMA nodes, as
long as the pages are hot, they need to be promoted to the fast memory
node.  So the accessing CPU and PID information are unnecessary for the
slow memory pages.  We can reuse these bits in struct page to record the
scan time.  For the fast memory pages, these bits are used as before.

For the hot threshold, the default value is 1 second, which works well in
our performance test.  All pages with hint page fault latency < hot
threshold will be considered hot.

It's hard for users to determine the hot threshold.  So we don't provide a
kernel ABI to set it, just provide a debugfs interface for advanced users
to experiment.  We will continue to work on a hot threshold automatic
adjustment mechanism.

The downside of the above method is that the response time to the workload
hot spot changing may be much longer.  For example,

- A previous cold memory area becomes hot

- The hint page fault will be triggered.  But the hint page fault
  latency isn't shorter than the hot threshold.  So the pages will
  not be promoted.

- When the memory area is scanned again, maybe after a scan period,
  the hint page fault latency measured will be shorter than the hot
  threshold and the pages will be promoted.

To mitigate this, if there are enough free space in the fast memory node,
the hot threshold will not be used, all pages will be promoted upon the
hint page fault for fast response.

Thanks Zhong Jiang reported and tested the fix for a bug when disabling
memory tiering mode dynamically.

      mm/gup: fix FOLL_FORCE COW security issue and remove FOLL_COW · 5535be30
      由 David Hildenbrand 提交于 
      Ever since the Dirty COW (CVE-2016-5195) security issue happened, we know
that FOLL_FORCE can be possibly dangerous, especially if there are races
that can be exploited by user space.

Right now, it would be sufficient to have some code that sets a PTE of a
R/O-mapped shared page dirty, in order for it to erroneously become
writable by FOLL_FORCE.  The implications of setting a write-protected PTE
dirty might not be immediately obvious to everyone.

And in fact ever since commit 9ae0f87d ("mm/shmem: unconditionally set
pte dirty in mfill_atomic_install_pte"), we can use UFFDIO_CONTINUE to map
a shmem page R/O while marking the pte dirty.  This can be used by
unprivileged user space to modify tmpfs/shmem file content even if the
user does not have write permissions to the file, and to bypass memfd
write sealing -- Dirty COW restricted to tmpfs/shmem (CVE-2022-2590).

To fix such security issues for good, the insight is that we really only
need that fancy retry logic (FOLL_COW) for COW mappings that are not
writable (!VM_WRITE).  And in a COW mapping, we really only broke COW if
we have an exclusive anonymous page mapped.  If we have something else
mapped, or the mapped anonymous page might be shared (!PageAnonExclusive),
we have to trigger a write fault to break COW.  If we don't find an
exclusive anonymous page when we retry, we have to trigger COW breaking
once again because something intervened.

Let's move away from this mandatory-retry + dirty handling and rely on our
PageAnonExclusive() flag for making a similar decision, to use the same
COW logic as in other kernel parts here as well.  In case we stumble over
a PTE in a COW mapping that does not map an exclusive anonymous page, COW
was not properly broken and we have to trigger a fake write-fault to break
COW.

Just like we do in can_change_pte_writable() added via commit 64fe24a3
("mm/mprotect: try avoiding write faults for exclusive anonymous pages
when changing protection") and commit 76aefad6 ("mm/mprotect: fix
soft-dirty check in can_change_pte_writable()"), take care of softdirty
and uffd-wp manually.

For example, a write() via /proc/self/mem to a uffd-wp-protected range has
to fail instead of silently granting write access and bypassing the
userspace fault handler.  Note that FOLL_FORCE is not only used for debug
access, but also triggered by applications without debug intentions, for
example, when pinning pages via RDMA.

This fixes CVE-2022-2590. Note that only x86_64 and aarch64 are
affected, because only those support CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_MINOR.

Fortunately, FOLL_COW is no longer required to handle FOLL_FORCE. So
let's just get rid of it.

Thanks to Nadav Amit for pointing out that the pte_dirty() check in
FOLL_FORCE code is problematic and might be exploitable.

Note 1: We don't check for the PTE being dirty because it doesn't matter
	for making a "was COWed" decision anymore, and whoever modifies the
	page has to set the page dirty either way.

Note 2: Kernels before extended uffd-wp support and before
	PageAnonExclusive (< 5.19) can simply revert the problematic
	commit instead and be safe regarding UFFDIO_CONTINUE. A backport to
	v5.19 requires minor adjustments due to lack of
	vma_soft_dirty_enabled().

      mm/mmap: build protect protection_map[] with __P000 · 84053271
      由 Anshuman Khandual 提交于 
      Patch series "mm/mmap: Drop __SXXX/__PXXX macros from across platforms",
v7.

__SXXX/__PXXX macros are unnecessary abstraction layer in creating the
generic protection_map[] array which is used for vm_get_page_prot().  This
abstraction layer can be avoided, if the platforms just define the array
protection_map[] for all possible vm_flags access permission combinations
and also export vm_get_page_prot() implementation.

This series drops __SXXX/__PXXX macros from across platforms in the tree. 
First it build protects generic protection_map[] array with '#ifdef
__P000' and moves it inside platforms which enable
ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT.  Later this build protects same array with
'#ifdef ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT' and moves inside remaining platforms
while enabling ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT.  This adds a new macro
DECLARE_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT defining the current generic vm_get_page_prot(),
in order for it to be reused on platforms that do not require custom
implementation.  Finally, ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT can just be dropped,
as all platforms now define and export vm_get_page_prot(), via looking up
a private and static protection_map[] array.  protection_map[] data type
has been changed as 'static const' on all platforms that do not change it
during boot.


This patch (of 26):

Build protect generic protection_map[] array with __P000, so that it can
be moved inside all the platforms one after the other.  Otherwise there
will be build failures during this process. 
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_VM_GET_PAGE_PROT cannot be used for this purpose as only
certain platforms enable this config now.
